Synthesis and characterization of treated banana fibers and selected jute fiber based hybrid composites

The hybrid composite is obtained by compounding the natural fiber with artificial or synthetic fibers in the reinforcement phase. For the current work the NaOH treated banana fibers of selected length of 15 mm and selected length of 30 mm jute fibers are combined with glass fibers for various weight frac�tions. The specimens of treated banana/glass fiber with epoxy hybrid composites synthesized by hand layup method with reinforcement of treated banana fibers wt% of 30%, 40%, and 50%. Similarly jute/glass
fiber with epoxy hybrid composites synthesized by hand layup method with Jute reinforcement wt% of 30%, 40%, and 50%. The synthesized composites characterized by tensile behaviors with help of comput�erized tensile tester. The interesting results were reported.
